Knowledge and wisdom, far from being one, have oft times no connexion. Knowledge dwells in heads replete with thoughts of other men; wisdom in minds attentive to their own. Knowledge is proud he has learned so much. Wisdom is humble that he knows no more. William Cowper

Just saw Nicola Benedetti giving a Master Class in dealing with a phone going off in the audience. No disapproval. No scorn. But generosity and a smile. Made everyone feel better. Kindness is the best policy.

I still remember her spine tingling version of “Like a Rolling Stone” in the Bob Dylan musical “Girl for the North Country”. Fantastic singing voice.
